Conspiracy of Silence: Queensland’s Frontier Killing Times (2013)
Bottoms, Timothy

The Queensland frontier was more violent than any other Australian colony. From the first penal settlement at Moreton Bay in 1824, as white pastoralists moved into new parts of country, violence invariably followed. Many tens of thousands of Aboriginals were killed. Europeans were killed too, but in much smaller numbers.
